Riviergezicht bij Overschie 1813 - 1866

"Riviergezicht bij Overschie" is a black and white drawing by Antonie Waldorp, created between 1813 and 1866, and currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. Depicting a river scene near the Dutch village of Overschie, the drawing captures a tranquil moment with boats, windmills, and a pathway lined with trees. Waldorp's skillful use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and realism in this charming depiction of Dutch rural life, drawing viewers into the serene atmosphere of the riverbank. The artwork's small size, measuring 360 mm in height and 543 mm in width, makes it a intimate and detailed study of a specific location.
